Definitions
- This invention relates to devices for the dispensing of liquids into a carrier fluid.
- a liquid dispensing device comprising an air pump, a vessel for the liquid to be dispensed, a syphon tube extending from a lower region of the vessel to an exit nozzle, an air outlet conduit for said pump provided with an outlet nozzle for directing a stream of pumped air past the liquid exit nozzle, the air outlet nozzle having an effective cross-sectional area not more than twice that of the liquid exit nozzle.
- the liquid conduit is preferably a capillary tube with a cross-sectional area about 10 mm 2 or less.
- the liquid exit nozzle is no larger and can have a substantially smaller cross-section eg. equivalent to a diameter of approximately 1–2 mm.
- the air outlet nozzle preferably has a cross-sectional area not substantially more than that of the liquid exit nozzle, or even up to about 40% less than the liquid exit nozzle. It is also possible to form the air outlet nozzle as an orifice of a size similar to or greater than the liquid exit nozzle but with a smaller effective cross-sectional area by virtue of a baffle or other obstacle to the issuing flow immediately downstream of the orifice. For example the liquid exit nozzle structure may project into and partly block the flow path from the orifice in the air flow path. This both reduces the effective cross-sectional area to increase the air flow velocity and generates unsteady flow conditions which will enhance the dispersal of the liquid drawn into the flow.
- the invention provides a liquid dispensing device comprising a vessel for the liquid to be dispensed, an outlet passage extending from a lower region of the vessel to a liquid exit nozzle, a conduit provided with an outlet nozzle for directing a stream of air past the liquid exit nozzle, the liquid exit nozzle extending into a projection of the air outlet nozzle axially thereof to partially overlie said projection, the portion of the nozzle projection not so overlain having a cross-sectional area not substantially greater than the cross-section of the liquid exit nozzle.
- a baffle or the like obstacle may be located downstream of the liquid exit nozzle to promote unsteady flow conditions for accelerating the dispersal of the liquid in the airflow.
- the outlet opening of the liquid exit nozzle of a liquid dispensing device at its closest to the air outlet nozzle opening, is spaced not more that four times the mean cross-sectional dimension of the air outlet nozzle from that nozzle, in order to limit the degree of diffusion of the airstream before it flows across the liquid exit nozzle outlet, and preferably the spacing is not substantially more than twice that dimension.
- the invention is also concerned with arrangements of liquid dispensing devices in a manner suitable for large scale production.
- a liquid dispensing device comprising a vessel for a liquid to be dispensed, a conduit extending upwardly from a lower region of the vessel to a liquid exit nozzle, and an air pump connected to an outlet conduit having an air outlet nozzle opening adjacent said liquid exit nozzle to draw liquid therefrom by a flow of air through said outlet nozzle, said air and liquid nozzles being formed by a pair of elements having opposed faces at which the elements are sealed together, said nozzles comprising depressions in at least one of said faces.
- the liquid dispensing device comprises a vessel for a liquid to be dispensed, a conduit extending upwardly from a lower region of the vessel to a liquid exit nozzle, and an air pump connected to an outlet conduit having an air outlet nozzle opening adjacent said liquid exit nozzle, at least the liquid exit nozzle being defined by a separately formed insert.
- the air outlet nozzle may comprise a further insert and, to control their relative location, the inserts may be arranged to lie in contact with each other.
- a liquid dispensing device comprising a pump for generating a carrier fluid flow, a replaceable vessel removably connected to a mounting communicating with a fluid flow exit from said generating means, said vessel providing a container for the liquid to be dispensed, an outlet passage for said liquid extending between the mounting and a lower region of the vessel, said mounting of the device containing coacting nozzles for the flow from said generating means and the liquid from said outlet passage to entrain the liquid in suspension in said fluid flow.

- FIGS. 12 and 13 are, respectively, a larger scale view of the circled region in FIG. 11 and an exploded view from below of the air and liquid outlet nozzles in the device of FIGS. 11 and 12 .
- the dispensing device is in the form of a plug-in unit intended to be mounted on an electrical supply socket by a 3-pin connection plug 12 at the rear of the device.
- the device has a casing comprising a rear body moulding 14 from which the plug pins project.
- a pumping unit 16 comprising an electric motor and an air pump is mounted on the rear moulding and is enclosed by a front cover moulding 18 permanently secured to the rear moulding 14 .
- At the bottom of the air pump is a centrically located spigot 20 on which a socket 22 of a nozzle unit 24 fits closely.
- the nozzle unit 24 projects into a container 26 which is detachably held in the unit casing by securing means (not shown) between it and the rear moulding 14 .
- the nozzle unit 24 in this and the later examples may form an integral part of the air pump spigot 20 or of the container 26 and comprise a mating part that seals releasably with the container or the pump spigot respectively.
- it may alternatively be a separate adaptor that, as shown in this example, fits as a sealing plug into the neck of the container 26 and, through the socket 22 in its top face, that similarly seals with the spigot.
- a printed circuit board 32 providing electrical connection between the plug connection 12 and the pump motor and comprising a variable time circuit which is controlled by a timer switch 34 slidably mounted on the front cover 18 .
- the nozzle unit 24 comprises a nozzle block 42 integral with the main body of the unit or formed as a plug-in member inserted into a side face of the unit, as illustrated in FIG. 2 in particular.
- the nozzle block 42 has a through bore 44 communicating with the air pump outlet through a vertical passage 46 in the nozzle unit.
- An air nozzle 48 is located in the entry end of the bore 44 and abuts a liquid nozzle 50 which projects into the bore from below.
- a capillary tube 52 Secured to the lower end of the liquid nozzle 50 is a capillary tube 52 which extends downwards to the bottom of the container 26 .
- the capillary tube diameter may be about 3 mm.
- the bore of the liquid nozzle 50 is considerably smaller, eg. not substantially more than 1 mm diameter and possibly as small as 0.5 mm or less.
- the bore of the air nozzle 48 may be of a similar size, or possibly smaller than the liquid nozzle bore, eg. with about half the cross-sectional area of the liquid nozzle bore.
- the illustrated example shows effective size of the air nozzle exit further reduced because it is overlapped by the tip of the liquid nozzle.
- the air pump produces an air jet from the air nozzle 48 .
- the jet velocity is relatively high although the small size of the air nozzle means the volumetric flow is relatively small.
- a reduced pressure is thereby produced over the exit from the liquid nozzle 50 and liquid is drawn from the nozzle as fine droplets which, because of the high air velocity, are rapidly dispersed in the air flow.
- the liquid exit nozzle should be located close to the air nozzle because the airstream will diffuse rapidly as it flows away from the air nozzle. If this effect is not controlled, a much greater mass flow of air would be required to take up the liquid.
- the air nozzle outlet is located some two diameters of the nozzle diameter from the liquid nozzle exit opening and the distance is preferably no more than twice that.
- the overlap of the liquid nozzle 50 with the air nozzle 48 has a further effect in forming an impingement surface disturbing the flow exiting from the air nozzle. This effect promotes the mixing of liquid into the air flow and helps to inhibit the formation of large liquid droplets which would hinder rapid dispersal in the airflow.
- exit openings 54 are at an angle to the flow path from the nozzle unit bore 44 so the container front wall forms a further barrier for any larger liquid droplets in the flow. If such droplets strike the front wall they return into the main body of liquid in the container.
- the dispensing device may be a plug-in unit with a casing and a pumping unit arranged in the same manner as in the preceding example.
- the drawings show a modified air-liquid mixing arrangement in which a nozzle unit 62 between the air pump outlet spigot 20 and the liquid container 26 has an integral air nozzle.
- the spigot 20 is received in a socket 64 in the unit 62 , and a conduit 66 communicating with the air pump outlet leads downwards from the socket.
- the conduit 66 joins a deep but narrow slit-like passage 68 in the unit 62 providing an air outlet nozzle.
- a tubular extension 70 opening into the narrow passage 68 is inserted the capillary liquid tube 52 .
- a liquid outlet nozzle 72 with a diameter over most of its height greater than the width of the passage 68 .
- the liquid outlet nozzle has a conical cap 74 with a central outlet opening 76 of a similar diameter to the outlet nozzle of FIG. 4 , eg. 0.5 mm to 1 mm.
- the air conduit 66 which may have a circular bore, is considerably larger and, although it opens into the smaller cross-section nozzle passage 68 , the divergent rectangular cross-section of that passage is still considerably larger than the liquid nozzle outlet opening 76 .
- the projection of the liquid outlet nozzle 72 into the air passage 68 reduces the free cross-section for the air flow substantially. Since the diameter of the base of the conical tip 74 is greater than the width of the passage 68 , air can only flow past the liquid outlet nozzle close to the upper end of the conical tip.
- a nozzle throat is thus formed with an air flow cross-section which is preferably not substantially greater than the liquid outlet opening 76 , and which in the illustrated example is smaller than that outlet opening.
- FIGS. 8–10 illustrate another way in which the cost of manufacture can be substantially reduced.
- the air and liquid nozzles are integral parts of the nozzle unit 82 between the air pump spigot 20 and the liquid container 26 .
- the unit 82 itself is a unitary plastics moulding having two opposed parts 84 , 86 joined by an integral hinge element 88 about which the two parts can be folded together to bring their opposed planar faces 84 a , 86 a together, these mating faces being sealed together at their areas of contact.
- the socket 88 receiving the air pump spigot is formed as two semicircular recesses 88 a , 88 b in the two parts 84 , 86 and conduits 90 , 92 respectively for the air and liquid flows to the nozzles are also divided to be formed by semi-circular grooves in the faces 84 a , 86 a .
- a dowelling projections 94 are formed in the one part 84 for engagement with depressions 96 in the other part 86 to locate the matching recesses in the two parts together accurately.
- the two parts of the moulding also share between them corresponding recesses forming a divergent exit passage 98 for the mixed flow of air and liquid droplets.
- the air and liquid nozzles between the conduits 90 , 92 and the exit passage 98 are formed as recesses 102 , 104 respectively in only one of the parts because of their small cross-sectional size.
- the air nozzle 102 extends to intersect the liquid exit nozzle 104 which has a similar or somewhat larger cross-section and which extends from one of the recesses forming the liquid supply conduit 92 .
- baffle 106 At the downstream side of the liquid outlet nozzle 104 is a baffle 106 which reduces the outlet cross-section abruptly at the beginning of the divergent exit passage 98 to promote mixing in a similar manner to the preceding examples. This baffle adjacent the nozzle exits disturbs the mixed flow of air and liquid from the nozzles.
- the manufacture of a unitary moulding of the kind shown in FIGS. 8–10 can be further simplified by forming further features, such as the conduits 90 , 92 and the exit passage 98 , in a face of one of the parts, the other part then having a mainly or wholly planar mating face.
- FIGS. 11–13 show a further modified form of nozzle unit 110 devised with a view to simplifying manufacture of the dispensing device. Only part of the device is illustrated and the remainder of the device may be as shown in FIGS. 1–4 .
- the nozzle unit 110 has a socket 112 receiving the air pump spigot 20 and it fits sealingly on the neck of the container 26 as in the earlier examples, but in this case the unit 110 carries a plug insert 114 into which respective air and liquid nozzles 116 , 118 are in their turn fitted.
- the nozzle unit has upper and lower entry conduits 120 , 122 for the air and liquid flows respectively, the liquid capillary tube 52 being inserted into the lower conduit 122 . Both conduits lead to a cross-passage 126 in which the plug insert 114 is a sealing fit.
- the plug insert 114 has a through-bore 128 coaxial with the cross-passage 126 in the nozzle unit 110 .
- a flat 130 on the insert 114 locates against a corresponding flat in the passage 126 to ensure that the plug insert is held in the nozzle unit with the liquid nozzle 118 aligned with the liquid entry conduit 122 .
- Both nozzles 116 , 118 are rotationally symmetrical and can be produced with a high accuracy using simple dies.
- the plug insert 114 is similarly able to be produced economically with high dimensional accuracy, but it is only necessary to control the dimensions of the main body of the adaptor to ensure it makes fluid-tight seals with the parts to which it is attached.
- Each nozzle has a locating flange 116 a , 118 a that sets the depth of insertion into the plug insert 114 .
- conical end face 116 b of the air nozzle abuts the end face 118 b of the liquid nozzle.
- the liquid nozzle outlet has a diameter of 0.5 mm and the air nozzle outlet diameter is smaller at 0.3 mm, but in addition the air nozzle outlet is partly blocked by the overlapping tip of the liquid nozzle, analogously to the first-described example.
- the effective exit flow area is thus reduced and, moreover, the facing side wall of the liquid nozzle forms a baffle that promotes unsteadiness in the exiting air flow.
